In this book there are three wonderful fairy tales about a little bear. Tashik the bear lives in the forest with his family. He is small, but very brave. One day, Tashik the bear decided to find a fabulous clearing with berries and got lost in the forest thicket. Tashik met a squirrel named Apricot, who treated him to nuts, an old and wise wolf who helped him find his way home, and also, the bear cub learned why it is impossible to eat beautiful, but deadly poisonous mushrooms for small and adults. The adventures of a bear cub in the forest are always interesting and bright, and sometimes very risky. He learns to help friends and values friendship! Tashik the bear meets a very strange boy on the bank of the river. The child has no hair on his head, no eyelashes and eyebrows. The boy tells the bear cub why he is like this and sadly adds that now everyone is laughing at him. The boy got lost in the forest and can't find his way home. Tashik the bear calms the boy and helps him get out of the forest. While they are overcoming a difficult path, the boy tells Tashik what football is and teaches the bear the basic rules. They come out of the dark forest and see the city where the boy lives. Now Tashik the bear and the boy are real friends. A cold and snowy winter has come to the forest. Tashik the bear makes a snowman near the house and examines the snowflakes that fall right on his paws. The bear cub admires snow, snowflakes and winter. But that's not all! Tashik the bear learns for the first time what Christmas is, goes to visit the forest spirits, meets his old and new friends and makes the most cherished wish. After all, a miracle will happen on the night before Christmas and all cherished wishes will definitely come true!
